Famed escape artist (7)

I believe the answer is:

houdini

'famed escape artist' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for houdini that I've seen before include "being given to escapism?" , "American escapologist, d. 1926" , "Harry . . . . . . ., famed American escapologist" , "Showman" , "Expert at escaping" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, The Sun and The Wall Street Journal.
